ACE (Interracial Romance) Book #1

Chapter 8

When Valissa gets to the dean's office, she hears yelling... lots of yelling. She knocks lightly dreading what's to come. Ason clucks his teeth and pushes the door open. He nods at his brother and heads to a leather sofa in the back of the office where Jaco already has vacated and is stretching out his long legs.

"Ms. Mercer please... have a seat" she hears Dean Buchanan say.

He was a handsome man; dark brown hair, ocean blue eyes, about 6'0, and most likely in his mid-thirties.

"Dean Buchanan" she says smiling slightly.

"So what is this that I hear about a video?" he asks getting down to business.

She looks behind her to see the brothers lounging around on the sofa with no care in the world. Jaco looks up and catches her eye. He smiles a million dollar smile. Her breath catches in her throat. Was she actually starting to catch feelings for Jaco? She couldn't. He was the closest guy friend she had and that would totally fucking ruin things. But he was so sweet and gorgeous. His ear length blonde hair was tucked under the hood of his grey hoodie and he still had his shades on. She licks her lips; he was a fucking sight to see. Then she glances over to his left and there was his total opposite; Ason, with his long inky black hair, graphic tee that had the sleeves off with a pair of black skinny jeans. Total opposites. But at the same time, they were both; totally gorgeous. She internally shakes off the thoughts and focuses back on the dean.

"I'm sorry?"

"The video?"

"This dumbass over here decided he wanted to be an amateur porn director"

The guy next to her laughs under his breath and hisses. "Everyone was talking about how easy you were! And I just wanted to see if it were true! Don't blame me! You're the whore!"

She gets pissed. "How about you shut the fuck up!" she yells at him. "You were the one who videotaped ME!" she says pointing to herself. "Not the other fucking way around. Keep talking shit and I'll deck you again."

His smirk falls.

"And by the way you were a bad fucking lay!"

His face goes hard. "Excuse me?"

"You... can't... fuck!" she says slowly and dangerously.

He glares at her. "Of course you would know."

"Yes!" She says with a humorless smile on her face. "Of course! I would know because I'm a WHORE!" She nods her head. "Remember?"

"You haven't had someone like me in bed before!" he glares up at her.

"Yeah! I haven't because you fucking suck at sex!" She says flatly, relaxing in her chair. "As I recall it, I was the one in charge... the whole time!" she yells informing everyone in the room.

He glares daggers at her. "You'll be sorry." He warns.

"Try me." She shoots back. "I got somebody for your ass."

Valissa was fed up, she was tired of all these guys thinking they ran shit... no, from now on, she was going to be a new Valissa Mercer and they would know. No one would want to get on her bad side.

"Ok then?" the dean says looking flushed. "So Mr. Brown did record the two of you having... intercourse---"

Valissa snorts.

"Purposely" he continues.

"If that's what you want to call it; then yep, he did." She points to him. "I mean who does that?" She looks at the guy next to her. "People who have no life and want to critique some sex skills."

Jaco burst out laughing.

"Ok well Mr. Brown I will have to suspend you for 16 days."

"What?!" he stands up outraged. "All because of this slut?!" he hisses.

"Now, now; no need to be so mean." She taunts looking upset.

The dean has an infinitesimal smile across his lips but quickly covers it. "Now Mr. Brown..." he starts.

"My parents will have every last one of you in court for this." He stomps out of the office with a slam of the door.

Valissa turns back to look at the dean, "Now someone was being a little dramatic... weren't they?" she says sarcastically.

He laughs but covers it with a cough. "You all can go home" he says. "I have a lot of work to do containing this video drama so I'll be home at around 4:30 instead." He says to the boys. He looks at Valissa. "Again Ms. Mercer I'm sorry about this whole ordeal."

She gets up out of her chair nodding then looking at Ason. "C'mon Ason we've got work to do."

Ason sighs and gathers his things.

"I think I wanna go to your house... Ya know? And get close and personal." She winks getting closer to him.

His face contorts. Mr. Buchanan burst out laughing while Jaco looks on closely as the door closes and Valissa and Ason leave.

"We have to take your car." He says lowly.

"Ok" she says walking to her car. "You'll have to give me directions."

He nods. "Whatever."

She smirks. She just loved their relationship... didn't you?
